YouTube vs. TikTok – The Battle of the Platforms. It all started back in 2020, as each claimed to be superior to the other. This was a back-and-forth altercation that reached a point where both parties thought a boxing event would be an ideal settler for the debate. In June 2021, team YouTube squared off with team TikTok inside the Hard Rock Stadium, Miami Gardens.

In the main event, YouTube star Austin McBroom defeated TikToker Bryce Hall by a knockout, and ultimately, with a score of 6-1, team YouTube won the entire event. Now, after the famous Battle of the Platforms, YouTuber-turned-boxers AnEsonGib and Austin McBroom are all set to run it back again.
